PHOENIX — A man has been arrested for allegedly stealing a 14-foot trailer containing $200,000 worth of hockey equipment from Ice Den Chandler last year.
The Chandler Police Department announced Tuesday that 40-year-old Clayton Wayne Davis was arrested for allegedly stealing the gear on August 11, 2019.
Davis is accused of stealing the trailer around 5:30 a.m. that morning. Chandler police said video surveillance showed a man with tattoos driving a Toyota Sequoia.
The trailer was found in Phoenix on August 12, 2019, along with all of the hockey equipment.
Police had no active leads or identifiable suspects at the time.
Detectives continued to investigate the case for 14 months and, through an anonymous tip, identified Davis as the suspect.
Davis was arrested in Scottsdale on Oct. 22 and booked into Fourth Avenue Jail on one count of theft and one count of theft of means of transportation.
The Arizona Coyotes had offered to donate $20,000 to the Arizona Bobcats youth hockey program after the trailer was stolen.
